In the short time I was out filling waterers this morning, I saw no fewer than three photo– or videoworthy moments:
• young chickens drinking from a plastic wading pool filled with water, balanced on the edge with the poise of a synchronized swim team about to execute a move;
• more young chickens perched on the edges of a rope hammock, one of the birds successfully scaling a tie line to the tree trunk before flapping down to the ground;
• two young roosters in the throes of poultry puberty, chest-bumping each other.
I ran back in the house for my camera to capture the synchronized chickens. Of course, they had dispersed by the time I got back.
I'm getting more comfortable using my digital camera outdoors. But the photo subjects don't always cooperate.
I did manage to get a photo of the latest brood of chicks before they roundly turned their backs on me.
